Please don't read any further if you don't want to know about details in this film.
I was left very disappointed after watching this film.
Another Earth is the discovery of another planet the complete double of earth, with exactly the same people on it.
A short time into this film, we see and hear a woman talking to her exact same self via a radio transmitter. And this for me was the most interesting piece in the film.
The majority of this film has people walking around, asking themselves philosophical questions about what would they do ? and say ? if they met themselves on this other earth.
I like down to earth science fiction. I like Twilight Zone, and Outer Limits.
There is a movie with Roy Thinnes of The Invaders fame. The movie is called "Journey to the far side of the Sun", and is also about a planet the double of Earth, on the completely other side of the Sun.
I was wondering how the two films would relate ? Another Earth was for me a complete waste of time. The writers could have expanded the story from 90 minutes, and added much more.
At the end of the film, a supposed shock ending, the leading lady played by Brit Marling, ( I had never heard of her ), suddenly finds herself confronted by her "other" "Earth" self, who suddenly appears behind her, And then the screen goes black, and the credits role.
This film had plenty of interesting hype, but delivered nothing substantial, and I'm truly surprised at how many people liked it, judging by their reviews.
I thought it was rubbish, from start to finish.
